Let's see what I can do!!!

As we danced, me fears left me. It was our first dance together, and for Michael it was most likely his first dance ever. The room was loud, our classmates were everywhere, and yet it felt like we were the only two people in the world at that moment. The dance was like our first kiss, not the one the angry one that happened just outside on that fateful day, but the one in the hospital. Were it was the most unromantic place to be kissed, but yet we were in are own world, that took Caulder entering the room to shake us out of. The dance ended way to soon for me, but Michael just took my hand and started pulling me behind him.

"Michael what's wrong?" I was scared, I seem to be always scared. If you would have asked me a year ago if I would be at a party dancing with "The Alien", I wouldn't have hesitated to say no, but now I couldn't imagine being in anyone else's arms dancing, or by anyone else's side at a party. And I think that what scares me the most, not that he will relapse, but that he will find someone else that will love him more than I do. I love him I really do, but I don't think he understands how much I love him, how much I'm willing to teach him how to love again, and to protect him from those that wish to hurt him.

"Ginny, just hold on." He didn't even turn to make sure I was keeping up. He just kept moving forward and maneuvering around those that were not fazed by his seemingly desperate need to get out of the crowed. As we walked out onto the deck I was still not sure where we were going.

"Can we stop a minute so you can tell me where you are pulling me off to?"

"No, we are almost there." He did slow do, but he kept walking. He lead me to across the yard, where I found him sitting alone that night so many months ago.

"Why…?"

"Shh…" Michael silenced me by lacing his finger to my lips, then he slid his arm around my back and pulled me closer to him. He then replaced his finger with his lips and kissed me so romantically and gently that I went weak in the knees. His other hand was resting on my cheek gently caressing my smooth skin. I was an amazing kiss. He slowly deepened the kissed, causing me to loose all train of thought. After what seemed like eons he slowly pulled away, leaving me breathless. But I must have whimpered from the lost of his lips, because he softly laughed and smiled down at me. I could have melt right there if it wasn't for him still supporting me and holding me close to him.

"Our first kiss." I said breathlessly.

"Our first kiss." He repeated as his lips joined mine again.
